Never have....

But when a cop kneels on a guy's neck for 7-9 minutes...and the guy dies. That is abuse...

You can see it differently...I suppose.

Abuse equals murder?????

Even without any evidence?

I don’t understand the confusion either.

When you have a person handcuffed, face down, with other officers, the person is IN YOUR CUSTODY and you have a RESPONSIBILITY to make sure no harm comes to them. The cop did the opposite, then the man died. It’s not how ANYONE would want to be treated when you’re in CUSTODY. It doesn’t matter if he had struggled, he is no threat to the officers at that point.

Does ANYONE believe that the man wouldn’t be alive right now if the cop hadn’t had his knee on the mans neck for so long? He died right there.
